1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectiveThe latest research proposed a novel copper-dependent programmed cell death named cuproptosis. We aimed to elucidate the influence of cuproptosis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) from a multi-omic perspective.

methodsThis study systematically assessed mRNA expression, methylation, and genetic alterations of cuproptosis genes in TCGA ccRCC samples. Through unsupervised clustering analysis, the samples were classified as different cuproptosis subtypes, which were verified through NTP method in the E-MTAB-1980 dataset. Next, the cuproptosis score (Cuscore) was computed based on cuproptosis-related genes via PCA. We also evaluated clinical and immunogenomic features, drug sensitivity, immunotherapeutic response, and post-transcriptional regulation.

resultsCuproptosis genes presented multi-layer alterations in ccRCC, and were linked with patients' survival and immune microenvironment. We defined three cuproptosis subtypes [C1 (moderate cuproptosis), C2 (low cuproptosis), and C3 (high cuproptosis)], and the robustness and reproducibility of this classification was further proven. Overall survival was best in C3, moderate in C1, and worst in C2. C1 had the highest sensitivity to pazopanib, and sorafenib, while C2 was most sensitive to sunitinib. Furthermore, C1 patients benefited more from anti-PD-1 immunotherapy. Patients with high Cuscore presented the notable survival advantage. Cuscore was highly linked with immunogenomic features, and post-transcriptional events that contributed to ccRCC development. Finally, several potential compounds and druggable targets (NMU, RARRES1) were selected for low Cuscore group.

conclusionOverall, our study revealed the non-negligible role of cuproptosis in ccRCC development. Evaluation of the cuproptosis subtypes improves our cognition of immunogenomic features and better guides personalized prognostication and precision therapy.
